  It's no secret that many children would be healthier and happier with adoptive parents than with the parents that nature dealt them.That's especially   1   of children who remain in homes where they're badly treated   2   the law blindly favors biological parents.It's also true of children who   3   for years in foster(寄養(yǎng))homes because of parents who can't or won't care for them but   4   to give up custody(監(jiān)護)rights.

  Fourteen-year-old Kimberly Mays   5   neither description, but her recent court victory could   6   help children who do.Kimberly has been the   7   of an angry custody battle between the man who raised her and her biological parents, with whom she has never lived.A Florida judge   8   that the teenager can remain with the only father she's ever known and that her biological parents have“no legal   9  ”on her.

  Shortly after   10   in December 1978, Kimberly Mays and another baby were mistakenly switched and sent home with the   11   parents.Kimberly's biological parents, Ernest and Regina Twigg, received a child who died of a heart disease in 1988.Medical tests   12   that the child wasn't the Twiggs' own daughter, but Kim only was, thus leading to a custody   13   with Robert Mays.In 1989, the two families   14   that Mr.Mays would maintain custody with the Twiggs getting   15   rights.Those rights were ended when Mr.Mays decided that Kimberly was being   16  

  The decision to   17   Kimberly with Mr.Mays caused heated discussion.But the judge made clear that Kimberly did have the right to sue(起訴)  18   her own behalf.Thus he made it clear that she was   19   just a personal possession of her parents.Biological parentage does not mean an absolute ownership that cancels(取消)all the   20   of children.

解析:

(1)

許多孩子和養(yǎng)父母在一起要比和親生父母在一起健康、開心的多,這并不是一個秘密。對于那些在家里受親生父母虐待的孩子而言尤其如此(true),因為(because)法律盲目認為生理上的父母會更好。本句為對比句。可參照下句It's also true of children…because of…。

(2)

表原因,解釋見上。

(3)

同樣,對于那些在收養(yǎng)家庭中多年遭受(suffer)痛苦的孩子們來說也是如此,因為他們的養(yǎng)父母不能或者不愿意照顧他們,但是又拒絕(refuse)放棄監(jiān)護權(quán)。

(4)

同樣,對于那些在收養(yǎng)家庭中多年遭受(suffer)痛苦的孩子們來說也是如此,因為他們的養(yǎng)父母不能或者不愿意照顧他們,但是又拒絕(refuse)放棄監(jiān)護權(quán)。

(5)

14歲的Kimberly不適合(fits)上述兩種情況。

(6)

Kimberly的判例對屬于上述兩種情況的孩子而言最終(eventually)是有所幫助的。

(7)

Kimberly向來是她的養(yǎng)父與從未和她一起生活過的親生父母爭奪監(jiān)護權(quán)的對象或目標(object)。

(8)

法官裁決(ruled)Kimberly可以繼續(xù)與其唯一熟悉的養(yǎng)父生活在一起,駁回親生父母對Kimberly監(jiān)護權(quán)的要求(claim)。

(9)

法官裁決(ruled)Kimberly可以繼續(xù)與其唯一熟悉的養(yǎng)父生活在一起,駁回親生父母對Kimberly監(jiān)護權(quán)的要求(claim)。

(10)

根據(jù)本句后的baby可判斷此處為birth。句意:Kimberly出生后不久就被抱錯。

(11)

既然是mistakenly switched“被交叉抱錯”,那么與之回家的自然是wrong parents,當然不會是親生父母了。

(12)

另外一個小孩在1988年生病夭折。醫(yī)學測試表明(showed)這個小孩不是Kimberly親生父母的孩子,Kimberly才是。Kimberly親生父母由此與其養(yǎng)父展開了一場爭奪監(jiān)護權(quán)的斗爭(battle)。

(13)

另外一個小孩在1988年生病夭折。醫(yī)學測試表明(showed)這個小孩不是Kimberly親生父母的孩子,Kimberly才是。Kimberly親生父母由此與其養(yǎng)父展開了一場爭奪監(jiān)護權(quán)的斗爭(battle)。

(14)

最后雙方達成協(xié)議(agreed),養(yǎng)父保留監(jiān)護權(quán),親生父母有探望(visiting)權(quán)。

(15)

最后雙方達成協(xié)議(agreed),養(yǎng)父保留監(jiān)護權(quán),親生父母有探望(visiting)權(quán)。

(16)

但養(yǎng)父若認為親生父母的探望使Kimberly受到了傷害(harmed),則該權(quán)利終止。

(17)

把Kimberly留給(leave)她的養(yǎng)父引起了激烈的討論。

(18)

法官明確地說,Kimberly也有權(quán)為了(on)自己的利益提起訴訟(比如,假設(shè)在親生父母的經(jīng)濟狀況遠好于養(yǎng)父的情況下)。on one's behalf為……的利益,代表。

(19)

Kimberly并不僅僅(more than)是其親生父母的的私有財產(chǎn)。more than不僅僅,no more than僅僅,not more than不超過;至多;不比……更,less than小于;少于;不超過;不到;決不;毫不。

(20)

  血緣關(guān)系并不意味著親生父母可以剝奪孩子全部的權(quán)利(rights)。

  本文講述了被抱錯的孩子Kimberly的養(yǎng)父和她親生父母為她而爭奪監(jiān)護權(quán)的故事。目的主要是要告訴父母必須對孩子的健康成長負責,無論是養(yǎng)父母,還是親生父母必須讓孩子健康快樂地成長。

完形填空 :通讀下面的短文, 掌握其大意, 然后在1—25各題所給的四個選項中, 選出   一個最佳答案。  

     When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or   for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For   I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story   than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember   the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For   instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the   story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and   cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in   the speech of a 13 character.

           

   Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and 14 a story, and   so 15 as one wants to 16 the story only, one need not bother (費心)   about the language. But the case is quite different with a 17 of   English. I mean a student of English is different from a student of   stories or 18 is called the general reader.

           

   As you may also have 19 from the above, you ought to read very 20.   Not only very carefully but also aloud, and that again and again 21   you know the passage by heart and can 22 it as if it were your own.   Positively (正面) this will teach you many 23 words and phrases;   negatively (負面) it will help you to avoid many errors and faults in   expression. Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent   copying is a help to 25 by heart.
